THE WORDS I WOULD SAY

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
Thank God for each day,
His love will find a way,
These are the words I would say

MERRY CHRISTMAS

 And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news
of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in
the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. (Luke 2:10-11)

HOME

Picked up daddy @ the airport today, all were happy to see him.
Ro had to have blood drawn yesterday and as I sat there in the chair
holding Ro on my lap, I thought about the first time I did this (16 months
ago) How they could not find veins in this little girls arms and they tried
6 times and still did not get enough blood. I think I cried more than her
that day. Holding her hands today I noticed how bigger and healthier her
hands look and she can even open up her left hand now. I do not know
what conditions she would be in now if she were still in the orphanage.
They did a great job with her but they do not have the resources that we
have here in the USA.   Sooo  Blessed !!   Today they found a vein the
first try . I did cry today,I cried for the little ones who still live in orphanages.  xoxo

We also watched "Home for the Holidays" last night Children in
Foster Care who are crying out to be adopted, to be part of a family,
someone to call MOM or DAD, brother, sister.  A family to go home
to on Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, birthdays, etc.
It's sad children do not choose to be orphans.

TGIF

This cold is really kicking my Butt!
I am trying to get through Christmas cards, decorations, parties, etc.

I just figured out how to add pages to my blog and will  add pictures
of the hats I have made/making and the donations we have received
for fund raising. Will update things not sold yet  weekly.

Find myself wanting to get through the holidays really fast so we can
hear news from India. I have faith that we will bring another orphan
home but it will probably not be when I want it to happen.

FAMILY TRIP

Family trips are always amazing and exciting !  The weather was
great. (always warmer in Florida than Maine) This was Ro's first
family trip and she was so excited with all the new things she saw.
She learned so many new words and tried to repeat them.
Who ever said "you have to spend lots of money to have fun on
a family vacation ".  We all had a great time !

Dave leaves for California tomorrow and will hopefully be back 
before Christmas. Ro graduates from cast to leg brace tomorrow.

Adoption....faithfully praying for great news in the new year, that
CARA will start processing special needs adoptions, for a quick
process and  be granted a full adoption.

still working on CHRISTMAS decorations  and cards (slacker)
